Research description:
Research activities include large signal transient
stability analysis of power systems. Particular emphasis has been on
small scale systems with dispersed generation and load. Highly detailed
dynamic models are being developed for transient stability studies,
especially for turbine governor systems. The research focus is primarily
on weak transmission systems and isolated generation plants which together
exhibit unstable performance.
Special research capabilities exist because of extensive familiarity with
commercial transient stability software, such as PTI's PSS/E.
Lab Facilities:
Special facilities include access to commercial
power systems simulation software, in conjunction with Electric Power
Systems, Inc. of Anchorage, Alaska.
